Given how little libraries advertise, this is something that I found recently. Like many, I missed being able to easily/quickly rent games via Blockbuster. But, it turns out many librarians keep up with modern preferences and keep quite a few games for checkout. Even when the one closest library doesn’t have something I want, it’s often available in the others on the network.
Especially as Nintendo lifts their prices to $80, this may be something to seriously consider for people that have felt burned just two days into playing a game that isn’t as fun as it looked in trailers.

Yeah some of the libraries near me have a selection of video games on the shelves. At least one even has board games.
I love libraries.
